It also features the full line of versatile and innovative Titen screw anchors and solutions.

Simpson Strong-Tie will also showcase a comprehensive range of repair, protection and strengthening products. This includes structural epoxy crack repair products, Heli-Tie helical wall and stitching ties. It also includes fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) solutions and other Composite Strengthening Systems (CSS).

World of Concrete is the construction industry’s largest international event for concrete and masonry contractors. More than 60,000 industry professionals annually attend the conference and tradeshow. This show features approximately 1,500 exhibiting companies. Additionally, it occupies more than 700,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor exhibit space.

“Simpson Strong-Tie and our customers and partners have been busy innovating and testing new solutions for concrete and masonry applications, and World of Concrete provides the perfect opportunity for us to connect and share ideas and insight,” says Simpson Strong-Tie director of Concrete Construction Products, Ryan Kaelin. “We’re excited to be back at the show. We are looking forward to bringing our code-listed solutions and real-world project successes to share.”

Structural anchoring and repair, protection and strengthening systems at Simpson Strong-Tie Booth C5235 include the following:

The Titen family of concrete and masonry anchoring solutions comprises a broad range of versatile, high-performance products. The company designed them for strength and reliability with fast and easy installation. Backed by rigorous testing and a longstanding legacy of expert engineering, Titen screw anchors provide builders with code-listed anchors. And, you can install these in a wide range of exterior and corrosive environments.

Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) solutions combine a high-performance sprayable mortar with a carbon-fiber grid to create a thin structural layer that doesn’t add significant weight or volume to the existing structure, providing a low-impact, low-weight, economical alternative to traditional concrete strengthening and retrofit methods.

Heli-Tie helical wall and stitching ties are stainless-steel helical ties used to anchor building façades to structural members or to stabilize brick walls. The helical design allows the tie to be driven quickly and easily into a predrilled pilot hole to provide a mechanical connection between a masonry façade and its backup material or between multiple wythes of brick.

The CI family of crack injection epoxies have been tested to the latest ASTM standards. Additionally, they feature an improved viscosity range, accelerated cure times. You can also install them at temperatures between 40°F and 110°F. Simpson Strong-Tie has also upgraded its entire suite of dispensing tools and injection systems. They aim to help make applications fast, easy and clean for contractors on the move.
